Ingredients
- 500g minced lean beef
- 300g canned mixed beans
- 400g canned whole peeled tomatoes, drained from the can
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2-3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- salt
Directions
Step 1
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a deep non-stick casserole dish. When the oil is sizzling, add the ground beef and sauté, stirring often.
Step 2
When the beef is browned, add the chopped onion and sauté.
Step 3
Add the tomatoes, the canned beans, two tablespoons of the bean water and a little salt. Crush the tomatoes with a fork, mix carefully and cook over a medium heat for about 40 minutes, stirring every so often.
Step 4
When the stew has reduced to a thick sauce, take it off the heat; use as a pasta sauce or serve with toasted sourdough bread.
